Section III-1538 - Remote Seller Derived Sales and Use Tax -Electronic Payment RequiredA. Effective for all taxable periods beginning on or after July 1, 2020, all payments by any remote seller shall be electronically transferred to the commission on or before the twentieth day following the close of the reporting period using the electronic format provided by the commission.B. Failure to comply with the electronic funds transfer requirements shall result in the tax payment being considered delinquent and subject to penalties and interest as provided in applicable state law and local ordinances.C. If a remote seller has made a good faith attempt and exercises due diligence in initiating a payment according to this rule, but because of unexpected problems arising at financial institutions, Federal Reserve facilities, the automated clearinghouse system, or state agencies, the payment is not timely received, the delinquent penalty may be waived by the commission. Before a waiver will be considered, remote sellers must furnish the commission with documentation proving that due diligence was exercised and that the delay was clearly beyond their control.D. In any case where the remote seller can prove payment by electronic funds transfer would create an undue hardship, the commission shall exempt the remote seller from the requirement to transmit funds electronically.E. The tax returns must be filed electronically, separately from the electronic transmission of the remittance.La. Admin. Code tit. 61, § III-1538
